I took a sip from the devils cup -  britney spears , TOXIC.

08:58 AM 

- ROSE , wakie wakie , honey. It's 9 am. 

- ummmm , no please . i managed to say while turning to the other side.

She tip toes between the piles of clothes and my books spread all over the wooden floor , then she slides the flowery curtain and she opens the window . The light emersing in the room was relentless. Like a bat , I covered myself.

- Breakfast is ready . I made your favorite "crepes" with strawberries . come on get up! 

- 5 minutes and I'll be there . 

- Rose if I come again , I swear I'll throw you out of the window, and clean this room too a person can get lost in it..... At 11 am we'll go shopping , okey.

- yes m'am.

- Stop calling me that , you make me feel old . she said throwing a pillow at my face as she strolles off the room .

Hearing the door closed , I switch my position to face the ceiling. I like to stare for a moment at the white puffy clouds That My Aunt Bella Drew for me. The singlet I was wearing was drenched with sweat on my back.  I must have nightmares again. It vexes me that I cannot recollect any.

It's sunny outside , the weather must be radient today.

- Hmmm orange is my vibe for today . i cheered.

I go on through my morning routine , and of course I cover my scars with make-up . I think a long sleeved black body suit with black boyfriend jeans are my " go to " for today . And for a last touch , I throw an orange bucket hat . I walk down to the kitchen to find my aunt reading as usual her favorite magazine, and drinking her morning coffee, and humming !

Atleast one of us is on cloud nine.

 Shamelessly , My stomach gurgles .

- Well part of said goodmorning. She snickers at me .

- Good morning Auntie . I smiled.

- good morning sweetie , eat , we need to see some clothes today .

- you're all buzzed up today , something new ?

- No, nothing ! I just thought I need to change my wardrobe , it's been long time . she responded nervously .

Hmm that's odd .

- Auntie is there something we need to talk about , you're cheeks are getting redder. And I know you're hiding something.

- Okey , honey give me a moment .   She said in her usual silky calm tone as she closes her magazine and settles herself on the counter chair .

Excitement and fear filled the look of her eyes. Well this doesn't happen often. I am intrigued . 

- well I'm getting scared right now , I laughed .

- No there is nothing to be scared of sweetie.

She pauses for quite some seconds before a word leaves her mouth again.

- Rose I met a guy . He is lovely and very considerate (...)

My aunt kept talking but I couldn't hear a word . My body was there , but my mind have already left. In all honesty , this was unexpected . I'm not quite comfortable, about someone entering our lives. I don't know how to feel .However , this is not about me, it's about my aunt. She is only 32 years old. A beautiful latina , well educated , modest and well reserved. Anyone would be lucky to have her. She never let someone in her life, and she never showed any signs of being in need of a man in her life. She just spent 14 years just watching over me. She became the mother of a child she never gave birth to , at an age where girls are living their prime of life. I can't believe I stole someone's youth.
